March28Sample Salads at sweetgreen For a Healthy Lunch Near Residences on the Avenue

sweetgreen specializes in salads, but that doesn't mean there's anything boring about a meal at this growing regional restaurant chain. Visit the Capitol Hill location and you'll see that a menu full of salad can be varied and exciting, as well as a great choice for a healthy lunch on the go.

Try one of the restaurant's signature salads like the Rad Thai, which combines arugula and mesclun with shredded cabbage, spicy sunflower seeds, cucumbers and citrus-grilled shrimp. Or maybe you'd prefer the hearty Harvest Bowl, with its base of wild rice and shredded kale topped with apples, roasted sweet potatoes, and local goat cheese. There are a number of pre-made salad combinations, but sweetgreen also makes it easy for customers to design their own unique salads from the bottom up. Start by choosing a base of greens or grains, and then simply add as many toppings as you like. Toppings range from salad standards like tomatoes and cukes, to specialty items like house-made hummus, crispy-baked tofu, and chili-spiced quinoa. Once you're done, dine in the modern seating area or have your salad wrapped up to go.
